Post Orb for Mac - Community Technology Preview (CTP) [Obsolete]
We are pleased to announce that we are ready with a first cut Orb version for Mac OS.

Encouraged by the overwhelming response we have had from our Users for OrbLive beta testing, we decided to make available the Mac build to those of you who might be interested in participating in the initial rounds of End Users testing/preview. Mind you, we aren't yet there with all core features of Orb (see below for limitations) and hence the tag "CTP" instead of "Beta".

If you are interested in being part of our extended QA team, then please take a moment to read through the system requirements and current limitations before downloading the build.

System requirements
    Mac OS X Leopard 10.5 and above running on Intel.
Limitation of the current build (OrbMac 2.50.0037).
    No Live TV/ Webcam Streaming.
    Limited support on Mobile devices - Works on Smart Phones and PDAs using TCPMP (.pls format), but doesn't work yet on Windows Media Player & on Real Player (most Nokia devices).
    Limited availability of iTV/ iRadio Channels.
    No UPnP support/ access via Game console/ DMA devices.
Note : Supports streaming to iPhone/iPod Touch via OrbLive.

Etiquettes for providing your feedback

Our primary intention of this exercise is to get your suggestions/feedbacks, and then work on them before prime- time release. To enable us to quickly review your suggestions/feedbacks, we request you to follow the format prescribed below.

Your bug / feedback report should mandatorily include the following.
    Orb Mac version.
    Your Mac OS & System configuration.
    Clear cut steps to reproduce the issue that's being reported.

Note : When requested, please zip up your logs and mail them to us. You can find Orb logs in Library/Logs/Orb Networks.

You can post your suggestions/ feedback on this thread and also send us an email to (mac.ctp@orb.com) .

Update: A new CTP2 build is available at http://forums.orb.com/viewtopic.php?t=14799

There's a Control Panel item under the Tools menu when Orb is selected in the dock, from there you can add folders.

Post I entered the wrong password
I entered the wrong user id and password on installation. How can I change it. Everytime I restart it just says wrong password. Control panel is greyed out and inaccessible.
